September 16th Original:

Alberta has put temporary measures in place to reduce the impacts of COVID-19 on the health care system

Here is what is important for EYBA:

Youth (under 18) sport, fitness, recreation and performance activities (Sept 16)

• Indoor group classes, training, and competitions are permitted, but participants are required to:
  • screen for symptoms
  • maintain 2 metres distancing, except youth while engaged in physical activity
  • wear a mask, except youth while engaged in physical activity
• Spectator attendance is restricted to 1/3 fire code capacity, attendees are limited to a single household or 2 close contact if living alone and must be masked and maintain 2 metres physical distancing.
• Outdoor activities can continue with no restrictions.

For EYBA we'll likely be having coaches "screen for symptoms" prior to each event and spectators may be "limited" or "not at all"

More to come as we get more information.
